That is news to me. I just tried the following on Mac OS X Yosemite Version 10.10.4:
Code:
$ cat hello.c
#include <stdio.h>
int main() {
	printf("Hello world.\n");
	return(0);
}
$ make hello
cc     hello.c   -o hello
$ ./hello
Hello world.
$

You do have to perform a free download of the Xcode development tools to get them, but once you do that gcc, make, and the other common development tools are readily available even if you don't use the Xcode tools to manage your source code.

otest

otest(1)						    BSD General Commands Manual 						  otest(1)

NAME

     otest -- SenTestingKit, OCUnit.

SYNOPSIS

     otest [-SenTest Self | All | None | <TestCaseClassName/testMethodName>] path

DESCRIPTION

     otest runs the unit tests found in the bundle given at path.

ARGUMENTS

     -SenTest value  This flag denotes the scope of the unit test to be run. Possible values are Self, All, None and <TestCaseClassName/test-
		     MethodName>. The default value is Self.

     path	     Path to the bundle that contains the unit tests.

OBJECTIVE-C GARBAGE COLLECTION
     otest is built with support for Objective-C garbage collection.  Due to the "whole process" nature of Objective-C garbage collection, invok-
     ing otest from the command line or an IDE or debugger will run otest with garbage collection enabled.  Doing so requires that the bundle con-
     taining the unit tests also be built with support for garbage collection.

     To avoid this requirement and disable garbage collection, run otest in an environment with the OBJC_DISABLE_GC environment variable set to
     YES.

ENVIRONMENT

     OBJC_DISABLE_GC  Set to YES to disable Objective-C garbage collection for otest when running test bundles that do not use it.

FILES

     /Developer/Tools/RunTargetUnitTests  A script that calls otest with the correct arguments for use with Xcode.

SEE ALSO

     RunTargetUnitTests(1), otest(1)
